Morning people,
Hopefully, this has not bee discussed on the list before, but here goes
anyway...
I have replaced my BB server with a hobbit server. Very nice drop in replacement :) I am still getting my head round the differences, but most issues I have had have been solved. Apart from..
My server is called bb02.colt, running on linux. I have added this entry into the ~/server/etc/client-local.cfg
[linux] log:/var/log/messages:10240
ignore identification ignore modprobe
trigger sudo
and this entry into the ~/server/etc/hobbit-clients.cfg
LOG /var/log/messages kernel
LOG /var/adm/messages ERROR
But I get no msgs status on the hobbit servers web pages e.g.
System logs at Thu Jun 1 10:07:18 BST 2006 : No log data available
The client did not report any logfile data
Both the config files are owned by user hobbit.
Can a knowledgable person point out where I may have gone wrong please :)
Cheers

If you running the server's client check BBSERVEROS in ~/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg: this must match the [linux] tag in ~/server/etc/client-local.cfg
If your running a client, check the BBOSTYPE when starting it, for example: "Hobbit client for linux started on zeb1". Again this must match the tag.
Also check what's in the ~/client/tmp/logfetch.HOSTNAME.{cfg|status}

Yup - all good
grep linux server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg BBSERVEROS="linux"

Again - all good
Also check what's in the ~/client/tmp/logfetch.HOSTNAME.{cfg|status}
Err - these files don't exist

Make sure you're running the latest client version, and also the latest snapshot of Hobbit 4.2 on the Hobbit server. "msgs" checks are not available in Hobbit 4.1.x
Also, if your client talks to the Hobbit server through bbproxy, you must update bbproxy to the latest snapshot-version, or the transfer of these files to the clients will not work.

Ah ha... That makes sense :)
Cheers for your help guys
